Refsnyder is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder went 2-for-12 with a solo home run and an additional run while starting each of the Red Sox's last three games -- all against right-handed pitchers -- but he'll head back to the bench Sunday while righty Merrill Kelly takes the hill for Arizona. Tyler O'Neill (finger) is returning from a two-game absence and will take back his usual spot in left field, so Refsnyder's opportunities to play against right-handed pitching could be more limited moving forward while O'Neill, Jarren Duran and Wilyer Abreu form Boston's preferred outfield arrangement. Refsnyder should still be a regular part of the lineup versus left-handed pitching.

Refsnyder went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two strikeouts in Friday's loss to the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder took Ryne Nelson deep in the sixth inning for his ninth homer of the season. The 33-year-old veteran has picked things up following the All-Star break, hitting .273/.317/.506 over his last 23 games. Refsnyder has five of his nine home runs this season over his last 19 games and should continue to receive regular at-bats in the middle of the Red Sox's order.

Refsnyder entered Sunday's game as a pinch hitter and went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in a 4-2 loss to Baltimore.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder produced Boston's final run with his eighth home run of the season in the ninth inning. His .902 OPS against left-handers puts him in starting lineups against southpaws and leads to frequent pinch-hit appearances.

Refsnyder went 4-for-4 with a walk, a double, two home runs and three RBI in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
He kept the Red Sox in the game nearly single-handedly, taking Cody Bradford deep for solo shots in the first and fourth innings before adding an RBI double in the seventh, but it wasn't enough. Refsnyder has three multi-hit performances in his last five starts, and he's hitting too well right now to be limited to a short-side platoon role -- since the All-Star break, the 33-year-old is batting .375 (12-for-32) with three doubles, three homers, six runs and eight RBI.

Refsnyder went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder and Connor Wong went back-to-back off Carlos Rodon in the fourth to give the Red Sox their only two runs of the evening. The long ball was just his fifth of the year and it extended a four-game RBI streak during which he's racked up seven hits. The 33-year-old remains a reliable lineup fixture against lefties and is now slashing .310/.396/.478 with 26 RBI, 23 runs, a steal and a 22:52 BB:K in 212 plate appearances.

Refsnyder went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday's 6-0 win over Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder made a second consecutive start after being scratched from Sunday's starting lineup. The outfielder is 3-for-9 with a double and three RBI in the first two games of the series. With a right-hander (Cal Quantrill) scheduled to throw for the Rockies on Wednesday, Refsnyder could take a seat for the series finale.

Refsnyder (shoulder) will start in left field and bat second in Monday's game against the Rockies, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder had been slated to start in Sunday's 9-6 loss to the Dodgers, but he was scratched from the lineup while he continued to deal with shoulder soreness, which stemmed from a defensive play the night before. The day off was apparently all Refsnyder needed for the issue to resolve itself, so he'll draw back into the lineup Monday while the Red Sox oppose another lefty in Austin Gomber.

Refsnyder was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers for unspecified reasons, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old was set to start in left field and bat leadoff against Los Angeles lefty James Paxton, but Refsnyder will now start the contest on the bench. The Red Sox have yet to provide an update, but it could be an injury situation since the outfielder is a lineup regular versus left-handed pitching.
